We are back! Skipped a week bc Jen went manic and is actually hypo during this recording. So it really was a perfect opportunity to dive back into the depths of Bipolar Disorder. We discuss the symptoms and how they manifest in Jen’s every day life and what it’s like to be friends with someone living with Bipolar. Jen also discovers @iamhalsey has bipolar and fan girls, while Whitney begs for new YA fantasy novel rec’s. As always, we hope you enjoy.
